Title: Willys Flat Head Engine Help Post by: HVYHLR53 on March 23, 2008, 07:18:17 PM Does anyone know anything about the 4 cylinder Flat Head Engines. I just bought a Buggy and I need to buy a few parts for the engine, but not sure what type (F, L) flat head it is. Anyone know how to figure it out?

The valve configuration makes the F-Head engine taller than the L-Head because the L-Head has the intake and exhaust valves in the block
